Jalen Hurts

More of this message board needs their head checked than originally thought if you think Jalen Hurts was coming to UL.

Posting about it lends cure to any Hurts still out there.

If Hurts set foot on campus, the NCAA will follow, way too improbable..

Whatever campus he sets foot on the NCAA needs to follow cause the bagman will probably be somewhere in the vicinity. My concern about our opportunity to get him is that I'm not sure our bagman has that much cash.

All in jest, of course.

I agree. I really like what Napier is doing with the limited cash we have to pay recruits under the table. Paying one guy is not going to get us into a NY6 Bowl. We need to spread our cash around. Look for UL to go for lower cost free agent on the QB market so we can buy a middle linebacker.

No more ridiculous than marlin reaching the NCAA tournament

Someone said they saw Hurts boarding a flight to Lafayette...................................

Let’s not forget Hurts was there to witness our 4Q domination of Bama. That had to leave a big impression on him.

Can confirm. Flight leaving Houston airport landed in Lafayette around 11:15. Hurts was with his family in the Houston area after the national championship game.

Someone send Dave Schultz to check it out.

Great. I heard Napier’s no nonsense approach was a little offensive to Jalen’s Dad at first. He now understands he will be starting the spring with the second string. He has to beat out Lewis on the practice field. I love this staff!!!!

This Hurts to UL thing is really picking up steam. I am hearing we are in his top25! You hear that?! We are ranked in the top25!!! Not only do we have his best friend Napier here at UL, but we also had a dual threat QB drafted in the NFL back in 1990. The wild card here is that he prefers the other 24 destinations, but we are in the running. Also heard if we are unsuccessful getting Hurts we will set our sites on 5star DT Sopsher from Amite. Exciting times.

----he wouldn't be the first QB that transferred to UL after winning a national championship---never thought about that before but think the guys remembered seeing him sporting that national Championship ring!!!

My friend's cousins wife drives her Escalade for Uber and supposedly picked up Hurts and drove him to Ruth's Chris. She was then asked to wait while he ate lunch with UL brass. After lunch she drove him, TJoe, Maggard, and Napier to River Ranch to tour his "dorm room." Please don't let this get out as the driver might get in trouble with Uber.

Now how that for a rumor?

Look, Napier helped develop Tajh Boyd, Garrett Grayson and Manny Wilkins. Boyd and Grayson were drafted, and Wilkins will be on an NFL roster this fall.

It makes sense for Hurts to hear him out. Outside of Oklahoma and Houston, a sub par season at any other P5 may hurt his draft stock. Having 2 above average years in the Sunbelt may not help much, but it wont hurt. Scouts already know what they have in Hurts.

Most of all, Hurts knows that Billy will be here at UL for the next two years. He has a little security.

I guess we will all find out on 1/16/19.
